TENNIS: Semifinals decided early at 16-under intersectionals

After after winning all nine girls’ singles matches in pool play, the Southern California all-stars lost all three in Wednesday’s semifinals against Midwest and the team fell behind 6-0 at the 16-under intersectional team championships at Pierremont Oaks Tennis Club in Shreveport, La.

Westlake High sophomore Sivan Krems, who was 3-0 in singles along with a mixed doubles victory in pool play, didn’t play singles against Midwest. Temple City’s Ashley Dai, Palm Desert’s Desirae Krawczyk and Ojai’s Tess Bernard-Feigenbaum all lost, as did University High of Irvine’s Reo Asami and Gage Brymer, along with Los Angeles’ Alex Scheinman in boys’ singles competition.

Krems will play doubles with Dai in the afternoon for Southern California, which lost 6-3 to Midwest in last year’s semifinals.

Southern has built a 5-1 lead over Eastern following singles play in the other semifinal, securing a rematch with Midwest in Thursday’s championship. Southern, which defeated Eastern 8-1 in last year’s semifinals, recorded a 9-0 win over Midwest to capture last year’s title.
